Let's bring back Union Square

As you may or may not know, Union Square Park is going through a major identity crisis. Is it a melting pot of artists, students, bums, hipsters, 9 to 5ers, small and large businesses? Or is it a plot of prime real estate to host corporate sponsored events and act as a thruway for artists, students, bums, hipsters, and 9 to 5ers who will pass by uninterested in their surroundings? For now, the powers that be believe it's the latter.
